Chapter 19 Ogre Devourer

*Shoosh shoosh shoosh,* three more arrows struck the Ogre Devourer.

Thirty minutes later, the Ogre Devourer’s health was down to one-third.

The Ogre Devourer let out a sharp screech, and two ordinary ogres in the distance came running over.

This was a bit troublesome. Nie Yan glanced at the Ogre Devourer’s health, which was only one-third left. If he turned to deal with the ordinary ogres, the Ogre Devourer’s health would recover. Forget it, he decided to kill it first!

Nie Yan accelerated his shooting. The two ordinary ogres also joined the battle, and the pressure on him increased sharply.

The two ogres and the Ogre Devourer kept chasing Nie Yan, trying to surround and kill him. However, they underestimated Nie Yan’s agility. He was as slippery as an eel, shuttling through the gaps between several large trees, occasionally drawing back to shoot a few cold arrows.

The Ogre Devourer kept roaring and waving its huge bludgeon, but it could not catch Nie Yan. Under Nie Yan’s deliberate dodging, the two ogres next to it not only did not help but became obstacles. Every time it moved, there were two ordinary ogres, as clumsy as pigs, blocking its way.

Nie Yan attacked leisurely. He was crouching between two trees, preparing to shoot when he suddenly saw the eyes of the Ogre Devourer glowing with a dark red light again.

*Not good, it’s another Petrifying Gaze!*

Nie Yan put away his crossbow and rolled away.

*Miss!*

Having dodged the Petrifying Gaze three times already, Nie Yan had gained some experience. As long as he rolled away when the Ogre Devourer cast Petrifying Gaze, he could dodge it.

Before Nie Yan could stand firm, a huge shadow fell from the sky. An ogre had somehow circled behind Nie Yan, and a huge bludgeon covered in iron nails smashed down.

Nie Yan didn’t dare to stay where he was and lunged forward.

With a *boom*, the bludgeon smashed into the ground, and gravel flew.

Looking at this power, Nie Yan could imagine what the consequences would be if this ogre’s attack landed. The knockback effect of the ogre’s attack would definitely send him flying.

The two seconds it would take to get up after being knocked down would also have unpredictable consequences.

Nie Yan had just stood firm when he suddenly realized that he was surrounded by three ogres. The Ogre Devourer, wielding a huge bludgeon, and two ordinary ogres were gradually approaching.

“I’m finished. I’m afraid I’m going to die here.” Nie Yan didn’t expect such an accident to occur. He scanned his surroundings. The few night cypress trees growing around him completely blocked his path, and with the addition of the three ogres, he had almost no way to retreat.

The Ogre Devourer let out a deafening roar and swung its bludgeon down at Nie Yan.

The nail-studded bludgeon was upon him in the blink of an eye. Nie Yan quickly retreated, and the two ogres behind him also outflanked him from behind. Nie Yan’s nerves were stretched to the extreme when he inadvertently glanced at the horizontally growing branches of the night cypress tree above his head.

These branches were about seven or eight yards from the ground, covered with emerald green leaves, looking unremarkable, but in Nie Yan’s eyes, they became a life-saving straw.

“I’ve got it.” Nie Yan sidestepped to avoid the Ogre Devourer’s bludgeon and leaped high, shooting a strand of spider silk from the Ring of the Spider Weaver in his left hand.

Nie Yan’s jumping height was more than three yards, and the Ring of the Spider Weaver could shoot a strand of spider silk about five yards long.

This strand of spider silk passed through the gaps between the leaves and stuck to the horizontal tree trunk, suspending him in mid-air. Nie Yan used the momentum to leap high and fly over the Ogre Devourer’s head.

*Boom boom boom,* three bludgeons slammed down where Nie Yan had been standing, and gravel flew.

There was no scene of flesh and blood flying.

The three ogres’ attacks missed at the same time, and they were stunned for a moment.

Nie Yan quickly got rid of them and ran into the distance, squatting between two trees, holding the crossbow in his right hand and supporting it with his left arm. *Shoosh shoosh shoosh,* three more arrows shot out.

The Ogre Devourer discovered that its target was gone, turned its head, and charged toward Nie Yan, swinging its bludgeon down.

Nie Yan kept shooting until the Ogre Devourer approached.

Seeing the huge bludgeon smashing over, Nie Yan did not dare to be careless and rolled to the side on the spot, dodging the Ogre Devourer’s attack.

The Ogre Devourer’s health was already dropping sharply, and Nie Yan accelerated his attack frequency. The Ogre Devourer was about to give out.

The Ogre Devourer only had a few dozen health points left. Nie Yan’s mind stirred, and he went around to the back of the Ogre Devourer, put away his crossbow, and pulled out his dagger, pouncing on the Ogre Devourer.

Vital Strike!

Gouge!

Taking advantage of the moment when the Ogre Devourer turned its head, Nie Yan’s dagger left several wounds on the Ogre Devourer’s back, and blood spurted out.

After changing into a new set of equipment, Nie Yan’s attack had increased a lot. Plus, rogues had an additional 30% attack bonus when attacking the monster’s back, so the damage value was quite considerable.

The intense pain from behind caused the Ogre Devourer to wail and sweep its bludgeon out.

Feeling something hit him from the side, Nie Yan lowered his head reflexively, and the bludgeon whistled past the top of Nie Yan’s head.

Nie Yan secretly thought it was close. He raised his dagger and used Assassinate, hitting the Ogre Devourer’s chest.

The Ogre Devourer’s health finally bottomed out. It staggered, and its huge body collapsed with a bang, kicking up flying dust.

The other two ogres also charged over to attack Nie Yan. Nie Yan picked up the items dropped by the Ogre Devourer and quickly retreated, using his crossbow to shoot, quickly shuttling and shooting between the trees. The remaining two ogres were not very strong, and their health was not comparable to the Ogre Devourer at all. They fell one after another under Nie Yan’s shooting.

*Huff,* seeing all the monsters killed, Nie Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He had taken down another sub-elite monster. If it weren’t for this exquisite monster-farming method, Nie Yan would never be able to challenge these powerful elites by leveling up. This was the crystallization of the wisdom of countless players in his previous life.

Looking at his experience points, they had increased by a large margin again. This Ogre Devourer had thick skin and high defense, strong attack, and a Petrifying Gaze special skill. It was very strong, and as a result, it gave a lot of experience. Nie Yan received a 1000% bonus for killing the Ogre Devourer while being higher level than it, which increased his experience by 37%, reaching 73% of level five.

Although he had only killed two elite and sub-elite creatures, Lion King Kardo and Ogre Devourer, the experience gained was more than what ordinary players would get from grinding for two or three days. Leveling up was like riding a rocket. Grinding ordinary monsters was not as enjoyable as killing elite creatures at a higher level, but there were not many elite creatures suitable for using terrain bugs or special methods to kill. Elite creatures refreshed slowly, so he could only take his time.
